When I try to check the HTC Software Update tab on my phone it just says "Checking...." indefinitely. The latest one has been going for 15 minutes. It's been going this for 3 days. I'm running DamageControl if that has anything to do with anything.
Mine does the same on DC 3.2.3... Think we just have to use the firmware option.

K thanks
I think this was put in place to help prevent accidental OTA update taking away your root.

I was at work and the damn "herp software update durp" notification kept coming up. Every time I hit install later the damn thing came back up ten mins later. Anyway, does anyone know of a way to downgrade from the 2.2 ota?
I have a write up on how to do it in the development section.

Has anyone heard anything about this update? I am wondering if this may be my chance to gain root access by waiting for a rooted version?
I "heard" one person...ONE that says he/she got the OTA. I'm not buying it. Oh well...just waiting for the rooted update, if in fact the OTA even went out.
Can I haz Netflix?
In another thread about the update http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1132153
Some one says they called sprint and it was pulled due to bugs.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1076150 Download this apk. Worked perfectly fine on my device.
Hello I'm new here and I would like to ask if I should wait for someone to root the 4.22.651.2 or I should just download the new its the 4.24 and forget about rooting my EVO
So the golden rule is of course never take OTA updates. However, I look at it this way. Your already unrooted, and if they find an exploit were still looking at several weeks before it's released so why not see what the new firmware brings.
Im guessin now that this latest OTA is released things may progress, but what the heck do I know.
I got the update this morning.
So what happened? Is this a whole new ROM or just a patch?
i SAW, AND AS SURE AS SNOT IS SLIPPERY, DID NOT INSTALL TILL I KNOW WHAT IT DOES
way to thread necro mate!
I have an update available on my new tablet I got yesterday day. Where do I find update info about it? Will I lose the ability to root if I take it?

I myself am new to the a100 community, so someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
Now, from my current knowledge, if the update is for version 3.2.1, you will lose ability to root. With that said, if u want root, you should probably stay with ur current version.
Also, I believe some users have said they've been able to root the newer version (3.2.1) by the same 3.2 root method. They did encounter some problems but got around them easily somehow. But since I dnt know much on this, again, I advise against updating, unless you can confirm with someone whose successfully rooted the update and can get some clear instructions on how to root the newer version.

i have 3.2.1 and have rooted with su and others.
I myself have also updated to 3.2.1 and rerooted with no issues at all. The update is vital if you use headphones and hate how the screen autorotates when installing apks.
You can still easily achieve root with the new update, but we're still somewhat limited on what we can do with it because there has yet to be a custom recovery, or custom roms.
If you so choose to root, and find an Acer recovery tool on the market, don't use it because it won't work for the A100 and will definitely mess your tablet up.
After rooting, check out the "themes and apps" section to see what deb's have come up with for rooted tabs.
And remember, READ EVERYTHING BEFORE TAKING THE FIRST STEP!!!!!

would have any problem to receive an upgrade if app eliminated several of the system?

Same here no update. What gives?
No update, reporting in.
no update here either,anyone know how or by what criteria or location acer distribute it?
maybe going from 3.2 to 3.21 is only minor ,,but it does raise question of when ICS is released,will some have wait months longer than others?

From my experience with the A500 you can wait a day to month. I'm not sure how they roll out updates but its dumb.

Maybe they found some problems with the update and decided not to open it up to all regions.
if theres no real difference with this update, i think i will skip it for now.

Once I enabled the "Update" feature, it was immediately avail to download.
Settings > About Tablet > System Update > ...and check for updates.
mmm I still dont get the update,,maybe they don't like Canadians?
Would help if I told them Im not Canadian,,but English just living in Canada??
But seriously it occurred to me that they maybe put a hold on the update,,,as ice cream sandwich is supposedly coming for A100 in January,but if some are still getting the 3.21 update obviously not

So maybe rather than updates rolling out based on imei number it is actually some random variable created with goggle service framework data?

Are you completely stock?
So I got my inc2 back up and going and did a factory reset. It's on stock 2.3.4. Well for some odd reason it tried to ota during the reset. Now, when I check for an ota it does nothing. If I try to boot into recovery (stock recovery) I get the phone&triangle. Anyone have an idea what's going on? Also, I'm wondering if anyone has figured out a way to root this thing computer free? I doubt it but I'm hoping since I no longer have a computer

As far as I know 2.3.4 is the latest stock ota this phone ever got. HTC (or Big Red) forgot they made our phones and that is where the support and GPL compliance went out the window. Our phones are shiny new or cost $400 and such.
As far as without a computer...... not possible sorry.. Any friends with one?
Yeah, just not sure when ill have the time to swing by a friends house. I thought I missed GB but ugh, there has actually been a lot of features added in since GB.
